HERODOT. Heterogeneous quantum rod and quantum dot nanomaterials, towards a novel generation of photonic devices. KU Leuven
Electron hole recombination in organic materials yields a ratio 1:3 of singlet and triplet excited states. In this project we will attempt to recuperate the non-emitting tripletsby luminescent and photostable II-VI semiconductor nanoparticles (Q-dots). Several matrices, available commercially or through collaboration with other groups, will be combined with CdS- or CdSe-Q-dots (2 to 6 nm) in thin spin-coated films. The electron and hole mobility ...
